Charging by conduction involves the contact of a charged object to a neutral object. .

<u>Explanation:</u>

  • Suppose that a charged aluminum plate is touched to a neutral metal sphere, the neutral metal sphere becomes negatively charged because of the results of being contacted by the charged aluminum plate.
  • A charged metal sphere is touched to the highest plate of a neutral needle measuring instrument, the neutral measuring instrument becomes charged because of the results of being contacted by the metal sphere.
  • For example, a student standing on an insulating platform touches a negatively charged Van de Graaff generator, the neutrally charged student becomes charged. This is due to the contact made with the Van De Graaff generator which is negatively charged.

A heat engine does 200 j of work per cycle while exhausting 600 j of heat to the cold reservoir. what is the engine's thermal ef
AveGali [126]
The thermal efficiency of an engine is
\eta= \frac{W}{Q}
where
W is the work done by the engine
Q is the heat absorbed by the engine to do the work

In this problem, the work done by the engine is W=200 J, while the heat exhausted is Q=600 J, so the efficiency of the machine is
\eta= \frac{W}{Q}= \frac{200 J}{600 J}=0.33 = 33 \%

For crystal diffraction experiments, wavelengths on the order of 0.25 nm are often appropriate.
Kamila [148]

Answer:

A) E = 4.96 x 10³ eV

B) E = 4.19 x 10⁴ eV

C) E = 3.73 x 10⁹ eV

Explanation:

A)

For photon energy is given as:

E = hv

E = \frac{hc}{\lambda}

where,

E = energy of photon = ?

h = 6.625 x 10⁻³⁴ J.s

λ = wavelength = 0.25 nm = 0.25 x 10⁻⁹ m

Therefore,

E = \frac{(6.625 x 10^{-34} J.s)(3 x 10^8 m/s)}{0.25 x 10^{-9} m}

E = (7.95 x 10^{-16} J)(\frac{1 eV}{1.6 x 10^{-19} J})

<u>E = 4.96 x 10³ eV</u>

<u></u>

B)

The energy of a particle at rest is given as:

E = m_{0}c^2

where,

E = Energy of electron = ?

m₀ = rest mass of electron = 9.1 x 10⁻³¹ kg

c = speed of light = 3 x 10⁸ m/s

Therefore,

E = (9.1 x 10^{-31} kg)(3  x  10^8 m/s)^2\\

E = (8.19 x 10^{-14} J)(\frac{1 eV}{1.6 x 10^{-19} J})\\

<u>E = 4.19 x 10⁴ eV</u>

<u></u>

C)

The energy of a particle at rest is given as:

E = m_{0}c^2

where,

E = Energy of alpha particle = ?

m₀ = rest mass of alpha particle = 6.64 x 10⁻²⁷ kg

c = speed of light = 3 x 10⁸ m/s

Therefore,

E = (6.64 x 10^{-27} kg)(3  x  10^8 m/s)^2\\

E = (5.97 x 10^{-10} J)(\frac{1 eV}{1.6 x 10^{-19} J})\\

<u>E = 3.73 x 10⁹ eV</u>

How many air molecules are in a 13.0×12.0×10.0 ft room (28.2 L=1 ft3)? Assume atmospheric pressure of 1.00 atm, a room temperatu
aksik [14]

Answer:

1963.93 Moles

Explanation:

-We know the standard conversion ratio for the volume of a mole is 1 Mole=22.4L

Given volume of rooms as 13.0ft\times12.0ft\times10ft=1560 ft^3

Convert the volume into liters:1560\times28.2l=43992l

#From our conversion ratio above, we get the volume of air molecules in moles as:

V_m=\frac{43992L}{22.4L}\times 1\ mole\\\\=1963.93\ Moles

Hence, the volume of air molecules is 1963.93 Moles
